REBOOT: Creating a New Normal
September 20, 2020

Being a great cook is more than just following recipes or measuring accurately. It also means being able to take a look in the fridge or pantry and using whatever you have on hand to make a meal, replace a missing ingredient, or add something unexpected to an existing recipe. Great cooks know how to improvise.

Being willing to improvise means being willing to take a risk. And not every risk will turn out to be a culinary success. (That’s when frozen pizza or Uber Eats saves the day!) But there’s an abundance of freedom in learning to be adaptable, rather than being locked in to the specifics of a recipe – especially when you’re out of a particular ingredient!

We launched our fall sermon series entitled REBOOT last weekend. Over the next several weeks, we’re taking a look at what it means to quit waiting for life to return to “normal” and, instead, move forward toward our goal of becoming more like Jesus in every area of our lives. Over the past six months, it’s felt a lot like we’re missing some key ingredients in our standard recipe for growth and health. So what might it look like to improvise and try something new?
